Secondary hyperparathyroidism (2HPT), a common disorder in patients with chronic renal failure, develops in response to phosphate retention and low serum 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) (1,25(OH)(2)D(3), calcitriol). Replacement therapy with calcitriol or its precursor 1alpha-hydroxyvitamin D(3) (1alphaOHD(3), alfacalcidol) often produces hypercalcaemia, especially when combined with calcium-based p...
